We Are Here Because You Are Still Living With What Happened to You You were doing your job.

And then a man you had never seen before forced his way in, flashed a knife, threw you to the ground, and zip-tied you before he raped you.

That is not a “tragedy.” That is a failure. A failure of locks, of cameras, of warnings, of a platform that markets itself as safe and a property owner who knew — because police had been called to that same address before — that danger was already on the property.
